The non-timelapse timelapse was a fun feature, I enjoyed that! 😄 Merry Christmas guys!
At least there was no swearing on the non-timelapse. lol
Classic!, just as well we put that timelapse on....love it!!!....
What I learnt from that Timelapse fail was that when we see you guys on camera that’s exactly how you are off camera and that genuine-ness is what makes everything you do so watchable. Thanks for all the awesome content
Always admire how politely they speak to each other.
Good job we're on time lapse says Chris. Interesting to hear the behind the scenes conversations!!
I bought 2 tickets in the draw, not because I wanted the car but as a way of making a small token of appreciation for a year's entertainment. Well done guys, have a great Christmas.
The last job I had as a Police Officer with Essex Police when they medically retired me was to collect a new Focus diesel estate (in May 2000) from Chelmsford and take it back to Southend. It was such a lovely car to drive, that we ordered one for my wife. Fully loaded as we were lucky enough to have a Ford ticket from my Grandfather. It took several months to arrive being a special build. Six months later, I bought one for myself too, but a hatchback. Again, fully loaded, plus a sunroof. The dealer called it the 'Christmas tree's as it had everything on it. Both superb cars that never let us down. I've been a fan of them ever since. Would love the Tangerine Scream!
Nice job. Have loved the work that you have done throughout the year. Thanks for the entertainment. Happy Christmas to you and your families.
even with the bloopers it still makes great content
"platform shoes"...lol, brilliant!
Love the way Rob practices his jokes on timelapse, (maybe not :-))and Chris has a knowledge of Tony Blackburn dad jokes. Fantastic watch. Happy Xmas guys.
Rob’s joke was at a similar level to Chris’s tbf 😂
Loved the candid camera section!
Can't believe that was written off for that minor damage! Easy fix!
Back in the old days, many blokes would have done repairs like that, out on the driveway, on a Sunday morning, after a quick visit to the local scrap yard!
You can sell the old doors for parts or repair too!
Mine was written off for less than that. Cars value 10k, cost me £300 for 2 doors in colour and job done. Where they (insurance) get their numbers from I don’t know.
@@Dalbayob69 pretty sure its new parts from dealer and it adds up.
Throw in a rental car and it soon adds up 🤔
@@piovo5222 repair needs to be more than 70 or 80 percent of cars value for them to write it off. No way it would cost £7-8k just for 2 doors but hire car was £345 per day. Took them 11 days to do estimate and bodyshop said it will be atleast 2 months before they can fix it. So I think it was written off purely due to cost of hire car because bodyshop is so busy. Lad who picked car up said they have over 200 cars in yard and some been there for over 6 months waiting on parts.
@@piovo5222 Exactly plus £100 per hour labour, easy rack up several thousand pounds.
7:31 That Been thread lock too long... love it
Happy Christmas Rob and Chris...I love your channel and content...2 smashing blokes....
I see you got your trainers in colour Rob.😂. Nice car brilliant vlog.💛
When you think it’s on Timelapse 😂
I quite like it though, shoes Chris and Rob in their element
🤦🏻♂️ we thought it’s a extra 7 minutes and I’m sure no one will mind
@@sruk was just coming to say incase it was a mistake - those platform shoes did come in handy then 😆
@@sruk I'm pretty sure you could put an hour video up and it would be awesome 👍
Another cracking acquisition guys,and all replacement body components in exactly the same color match,how good can that be!!.That car will sell like a hot cake.
Do I spot a ministry of sound CD on the seat at 10:51 ?
Trance? Someone has good taste in music 🤣🤣
Fantastic! What a Christmas present, two quick turn around videos in quick succession. I can't believe how lucky you've been on the parts, especially the colour match. Top work. 👍
These one day turn around videos is like a Christmas countdown mate
that is some ones dream car for a massive discount....love your vids and love you both.....merry christmas rob and chris.....keep up the good work so i dont have to pay a tv license to watch crap
Lovely car - I bet the original owner gets in contact to buy it back. If it were me, I would!
That was a fairly straightforward repair for you.
You both deserve an easy one after all the hard work you both put into other repairs.
Great video, seasons greetings to you both ❤.
What a little gem.
Madness to be written off for a tiny bit of damage like that, but it does mount up.
Happy Christmas you two.
That colour could be like the one near me it's an estate in a pearl finish good luck if he needs to match it in future
given the insurance will be based on using new panels and paint... that would outweigh the value of the car... so it's nice to get used parts for a decent price
Totally agree written off for nothing really
Love that colour, car looks great inside as well. Good job boys, Nice earner.
Loved this one, Rob and Chris. Great little car for a good price. Merry Christmas AND a Happy New Year to everyone.
Another great rebuild. Happy Christmas Chris & Rob, hope you both have a great one & some well earned rest.
Fantastic car for not a lot of money. It will do someone proud. Great work keep it up 👍🏼
I’m gonna race everyone around Mc Donald’s in it 😂😅
Great videos thought out the year & a nice easy one to end the year off.Merry Christmas Rob & Chris.
Good evening Rob and Chris. Great looking car and a very fast turnaround.
I think it will sell tomorrow😀.
Thank you for taking the time to upload another video. Happy Christmas to you both and your families. Ged
Thanks for super videos you have put out during this year. Wishing you both a Very Happy Christmas , have a well deserved break and All the Best for 2024 .
Yes that colour pops, one of the best Ford colours ever I think. Another one turned around in quick time once again. Well done to you both for getting it done even with the rain. I will wish you a Merry Christmas Rob and Chris. Thank you for the great videos throughout the year, they have been entertaining, interesting and informative. 🧑🎄👍👍
That bit of not time lapse is brilliant.
Nice to see you cracking on with a bit of banter whilst you thought no one was listening.
Was a fella up in my local magistrates court last week for shoplifting, he was stealing Calendars, the old Judge had a sense of humour and gave the fella 12 months.
Cheers again chaps and hope you both have a nice Christmas, also all the best for 2024
I'm surprised that it was in an accident given the, Seen from Space Colour. 😂
One of the best colours, triple metallic and pearlescent yellow/orange (tangerine)
"Good job we're on time-lapse' 😂😂😂
There is a tool for removing & tightening the inner tie rod. It clamps onto the round outside of the inner and has a square socket drive to tighten or loosen, much easier then grips.
We find it much harder or we would have used it
Another great video Rob and Chris. I spotted the wheels too as soon as you opened your van door, they are mk2 facelift wheels, if you look closely at the spoke shape they are different to the mk3.
The faster you turn them round, the faster the cash rolls in. If only every day was as good as this. Thanks for 2023 videos guys, it's been a cracker.
Merry Christmas to you both and your families, and a very happy and prosperous 2024 to you and all who follow the best channel...SRUK. Cheers, Bob
Rob: "I'm going to take it down McDonald's"! 🤣 Someone's looked after that car. I bet they were gutted when it was written off. Such a straightforward repair if you know what you're doing. Good result.
Happy Christmas to the both of yous” and happy new year,,
That’s a beautiful ford focas st ,,
Looking forward to seeing you two in the new year all been well,,
Great videos on the last few months))
Thanks for another great year following your excellent work, merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and yours…. 🎄
And that’s why I bought the ticket, the entertainment value that you guys give is worth the £9.99. Another fantastic video, keep them coming, can’t wait for the next one 👍🏻
Such a brilliant result!! Thanks for another cracking vid lads, we all enjoy watching.
Happy Christmas Rob and Chris. That st3 is awesome what a quick turnaround to repair it
Merry Christmas and a Very Happy New Year to both of you Rob & Chris....💐💐💐💐
Next video, how to do a gearbox fix on a recovery truck 😛
You two are like the Kent dynamic duo lol :)
In case I miss any videos, merry Christmas to both of you and your significant others :)
Isn't it lucky that you are good with cars as the new profession is not going so well.
Another great video guys. A brilliant buy and quick, easy turnaround. I bet you wish they were all like that. Merry Christmas, Enjoy the time with your families. See you in the New Year.
happy Christmas guys , thank you for all the time you have put in this year to turn out content , always an enjoyable watch , rob will be armed with a stack of Christmas cracker jokes for the new year , all the best for 2024 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄
are you going to get the gearbox refurbed in the recovery truck? or are we going to see a new Salvage rebuilds recovery truck?
What a stonking bargain for £6k!! Someone will be getting a superb car for that money.
Thought Santa was supposed to be bringing Chris some new gloves for Xmas?! 😂
Such a feel good channel. I love how you guys do business. Very straight forward blokes. Merry Christmas!
Hi Rob, the worst part of this video was your joke!
Nonetheless, a smashing and enjoyable watch, as usual. HAPPY CHRISTMAS LADS.
Great turnaround again lads. Good buy at a good price even after the buying fees lol 😂
One of my favourite channels..... been watching it for well over a year now. Each episode watched with a cup of coffee and my breakfast. The funny thing is I don’t live in the UK and I no longer have much interest in cars at all...... such is the quality of your channel, well done guys 😊. I’m originally an Essex boy, my brother actually lives close to you in Kent.... but thanks for providing such entertaining and watchable content, Merry Christmas to you both and looking forward to 2024 😊.
Merry x mas Rob and Chris thank you for the content this year Amazing and someone's got a nice motor their
nice one chaps 'can you reach that?'😆😆
Tangerine scream
Absolutely love the st fords thank you guys for your awesome content as always 👌👌👌
Thanks for posting this video. Gave me a nice relaxing last video of the day to view on a rainy SoCal evening.
6k for an ST in that shape is a bloody bargain, I'd be interested at that price. As I'm sure a lot of people would be.
Very cheap price
Excellent turn around as usual :) Its crazy to think the insurance would write off a 9K car with what little it actually cost to put it back right with ease. This is why i love to watch them been repaired and put back into good use :)
Being repaired
Hello Rob and Chris,that was a very quick turnaround lol,2 doors and a wing Inthe same colour.and wheels.it cleaned well after a wash, Merry Christmas to you both 🎄. great content over the year.

Nice to hear that the amicable verbal banter goes on even when they believe their voices aren't being recorded, (reminds me of the old 'minder' series,)
Lovely not to hear bad language.
All the best for Christmas and the new year, and many thanks for all this year's videos.
From Feilding NZ.

Merry Christmas all at SRUK. All the best for 2024 - Keep the videos coming!!
They are MK2 ST wheels you have bought, that are very similar but the MK3 wheels have a profile on the spokes and the offset of different and tyre size is different,the wheel nuts are different,and now the car needs tracking again, whoops 🤣
Happy Christmas guys ! Another stunner always enjoyable to watch thank you !
Great to see a really good car so easily brought back to life. You guys deserve your profit all day long. Merry Xmas.
Hi Rob & Chris, a shout out from down under Australia, followed you guys all year and enjoyed every minute! Such a refreshing down to earth pair of blokes entertaining your followers with skills and banter! Have a great Xmas and look forward to more of the same in 2024. Regards Keith
Yep great to have some Aussies on . I’m back to Oz for new year an Oz summer.
Nice example of a car that a lot of people could probably repair on their drive although not as quickly as you guys! Great turnaround on this one and nice profit - Happy Christmas.
Great job guys and nice when you have a quick one. Happy Christmas both. 👍👍👍👍.
Great vid I actually watched that go through copart auction.
Spot on Rob
